IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
DEAR SHARP CUSTOMER
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•	Outdoor Antenna Grounding — If an outside 
antenna is connected to the television 
equipment, be sure the antenna system is 
grounded so as to provide some protection 
against voltage surges and built-up static 
charges. 
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, 
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with 
regard to proper grounding of the mast and 
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-
in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of 
grounding conductors, location of antenna-
discharge unit, connection to grounding 
electrodes, and requirements for the 
grounding electrode.EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA 70

kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool\
; and the like.
•	
Stand — Do not place the product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod o\
r table. Placing the product on an

•	Selecting the location — Select a place with no direct sunlight and g\
ood ventilation.
•	 Ventilation — The vents and other openings in the cabinet are designe\
d for ventilation. Do not cover 
or block these vents and openings since insufficient ventilation can c\
ause overheating and/or shorten 
the life of the product. Do not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug or\
 other similar surface, since they 
can block ventilation openings. This product is not designed for built-i\
n installation; do not place the 
product in an enclosed place such as a bookcase or rack, unless proper v\
entilation is provided or the

ct.
•	 Lightning — For added protection for this television equipment during\
 a lightning storm, or when it is 
left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the \
wall outlet and disconnect the 
antenna. This will prevent damage to the equipment due to lightning and \
power-line surges.
•	 Power Lines — An outside antenna system should not be located in the \
vicinity of overhead power 
lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall in\
to such power lines or circuits. When 
installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to ke\
ep from touching such power 
lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
•	 To prevent fire, never place any type of candle or flames on the top\
 or near the TV set.
•	 To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not place the AC cord under the TV\
 set or other heavy items.
Electricity is used to perform many useful functions, but it can also ca\
